Good riddance Cynthia -- you are an embarrassment to your race, female humans, and humanity in general -- McKinney. Thankfully you aren't able to claim that your loss, a virtual thumping in the primary election run-off was because of your race. Losing to a Black man means you've lost that ace-in-the-hole, though you'll still pull out that card that claims you were beaten because you're a female. Hopefully the public is smart enough to see through it and once your opponent gets into office hopefully he'll do a good enough job to keep getting sent back while you're home being kept out of sight and out of mind.
Of course I know we won't be so darned lucky as some idiotic news organization (probably MSNBC or similar) will give you a job as a talking head where you'll help keep the MSM focused on the loony side of the liberal bend.
On the other hand, I really hope to see soon to be formerly Democrat Senator Joseph Lieberman, once a star of his party, nominated to run as the Vice President for one of the absolute worst Democrat candidates for the office of President ever (probably only surpassed by John F. Kerry, but others may have different choices to submit), come back very soon. He had earlier hinted at running as an independent and current reports (at the time I write this) are still saying that is a strong possibility. I hope he runs and I hope he kicks the crap out of the idiotic Democrats that opted to use the primary to "send a message" to Joseph Lieberman that he's too cozy with George W. Bush to continue representing his constituents in the U.S. Senate.
Lieberman is not someone that I would say I frequently find myself on the same side of the fence as. He is a moderate, but on many issues he's still far too liberal for my tastes. Still, Lieberman is a man that has represented his constituents very well. The citizens of Connecticut have no room to complain about the job Lieberman has done and still could do if given another opportunity to do it.
I'd love to see Lieberman go indy, and I've long ago predicted that if he did he'd get a lot of Republican support in the general election. I hope that is exactly the case, and I hope that Lieberman winds up being the *one* guy that keeps the Democrats from regaining the majority in the U.S. Senate. Though I don't particularly want things that close, perfection might be one of those nice 50 Republicans, 2 Indys (Jeffords is still there..., Lieberman would take the other spot), and 48 losers, I mean Democrats. Close enough that the Dems could sniff another power sharing arrangement, but held back by Lieberman as he gets some payback for the next term.
